June 1 S.A. (Kenilworth) form analysis
Race 1 (1,500m) (4) RANDOLPH HEARST finished well to win a good race on April 21. He will love the step-up in trip. Will take some beating. (1) ALL THE RAGE stayed on nicely for third behind Dreamworld in the Grade 3 Winter Nursery on May 4. Over more ground and from a good draw, he will be right there in the finish. (3) ROLAND GARROS caught the eye last time to win his maiden in style. He will get better and stronger with more racing. (2) SIERRA SAGRADA was very disappointing on May 13. He is much better than that, and can bounce back. Race 2 (1,400m) (3) GIMMETHATPEARL ran third behind Time For Love in the Listed Ladies Mile on May 4. She can be a tricky ride, but she is packed with ability. (6) MY ONLY WEAKNESS won well on April 28. Even with a five-point penalty for that win, she will remain competitive at this level. (5) KAMCHATKA returns from a short break of 77 days. If she does not need the run, she will be amongst the places. (2) ROYALS is much better than her recent form suggests. She could surprise on her day. Race 3 (1,950m) (3) SONG TO THE MOON showed tremendous heart to win last time, even though it was a small field. He is progressive and should love this trip of 1,950m. (1) WE HAVE TOUCHDOWN ran a great race behind La Pulga on April 14. He should be right there in the finish from a good draw. (5) PINOT GRIGIO ran on strongly to win going away at the line on May 6. He was given five points for that win. Watch him closely, he will be doing some good work late. (4) DUBBELOSIX powered away from his field to win like a smart horse on April 28. He was given six points for that victory, and must have a solid winning chance again in this tricky race. Race 4 (1,950m) (2) PAST AND PRESENT got fired up by a false start and had no luck in running on May 4. This consistent sort will take a lot of beating in this open maiden race. (3) BEAUTIFUL SIDE ran a top race from a wide draw on April 21. Blinkers stay on. Nice draw. (7) COPPER PLATE showed absolutely no speed last time in the 1,200m race at Kenilworth. He should appreciate the step-up in trip, even though he will need to improve quite a bit to win. (10) MOMENT OF TRUTH is much better than his last run suggests. If he gets some cover early, he will be running on. Race 5 (1,400m) (1) LA DIVINA won a lovely race on May 13. She will go very close again from a good draw. (3) ONI SAN is slowly starting to drop in the ratings. Jockey Gavin Lerena knows her well. Solid each-way chance. (2) SWIATEK ran a fair race behind My Only Weakness on April 28 despite drawing a wide gate. She has also dropped in the ratings. Watch for an improved run from this filly. (4) KAMAKAZI ran a better race last time. She might be able to sneak into the quartet. Race 6 (1,400m) (6) BOOGIEFIED returns from a short break of 77 days. He won a super race on March 16. If he does not need the run, he will be hard to beat. (3) RHYDIAN quickened up nicely to win a good race on May 13. He looks progressive and should love this trip of 1,400m. (1) TRIPPI'S SILK has run two cracking races in a row. He has the ability, but he is also very tricky. From a good draw, he will get the run of the race. (2) ARBITRATION finished third to Chasingtherainbow in a driving finish on April 16. He looks to be getting better with more racing, and definitely has a winning chance in this field. Race 7 (1,200m) (2) ABSOLUTELY YES ran a terrific second behind Dreamworld in the Grade 3 Winter Nursery on May 4. Big say in this Listed event. (6) SHE'S MY WORLD won her maiden well at Kenilworth on May 4. She will be right in the mix. (7) CHURCHILLIAN won his maiden in style on May 6. He looks to be a nice sprinter in the making. (5) THREE TIGERS finished his race beautifully last time. He can only improve. Race 8 (1,200m) (3) ONE LINER has been rested and gelded. Well regarded by yard. He will go very close to winning. (5) CIRCUMBENDIBUS moved up like a winner in his last start. Hard to fault his recent form. (14) ESCARPMENT is slowly starting to slide in the ratings. With the right run in transit, he could certainly be in the money. (6) STREET OUTLAW was beaten just under six lengths by the winner Paratrooper last time. He is better than that, and can bounce back. Race 9 (1,200m) (3) BECKY SHARP has run two terrific seconds in succession. She can be a difficult filly, but her recent form is good. (9) ELECTROMAGNETISM won her maiden in style on May 13. She is a young filly with lots of ability, and will go close to winning again. (15) MUSIC OF THE NIGHT ran a fair race in the Listed East Cape Nursery on March 14. Rested for 79 days. If she does not need the run, she will go close. (10) COLD BREEZE quickened up beautifully to win her maiden quite well on May 13. Include her in all bets. Race 10 (1,700m) (4) MAJOR MASTER had no luck in running when a closing fourth to Pinot Grigio on May 6. From a good draw, he will go close to winning the lucky last. (11) CHASINGTHERAINBOW finished like a train to win a good race on April 16. He has a striking turn of foot, and will be finishing powerfully again. (3) CONGRESSMAN won his last two races in excellent fashion and returns from a break of 71 days. If he gets away from the field early, he will be hard to catch. (1) HOODIA did everything right last time, but was nailed st the post by Chasingtherainbow. From a good draw, he will run a massive race again.

Remarkable Woman Annalies Corbin: Transforming education
COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) — Dr. Annalies Corbin is a visionary leader transforming education by connecting classrooms with scientific research and industry. Through initiatives like the PAST Innovation Lab and her Learning Unboxed podcast, she has impacted millions of students and educators championing hands-on, equitable learning. A nationally recognized speaker and author, Corbin is reshaping K -12 education to better prepare future generations for real-world success. 'The PAST Foundation is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to help kids, in particular, find their passions in life that they can then turn into careers,' said Corbin. 'Particularly, our hope is into STEM careers.' Science, technology, engineering and math — students find STEM at the PAST Innovation Lab, and they make it work. The lab has 3D printers, small and very large. 'Our goal is hands-on, hands-on, hands-on,' said Corbin. 'So we know that not only can you not do what you don't know, you can't be what you can't see, all of those pieces roll together.' PAST partners with local school districts and high school students to earn class credit. The programs start at kindergarten and go through college with summer, after school, and holiday break opportunities. 'Kids fly drones, kids learn how to be artists, to put murals up on buildings, kids learn how to potentially go into health care fields, just literally everything,' said Corbin. All of this is the brainchild of Corbin, who admits she was a restless learner. 'I was a kid that tried all the majors,' said Corbin. 'My parents gave me all kinds of grief about it. But the reality of it is I love to learn. And so the idea of just being stuck in one thing didn't really appeal to me. And so I tried lots of stuff. And what that taught me is that there's just so much potential out there.' Teachers from around the country are trained by PAST to use hands-on learning to help students find their own passion. When they do, attendance and grades go up. PAST teams with industries and employers, many of which provide financial support. 'We get funding from corporations, we get funding from individuals, we have families that support and provide funding for other kids to attend camps,' said Corbin. 'We get state funding, we have federal funding, lots of grants. We write an awful lot of grants around here.' Twenty-five years in, Corbin has written detailed books about her teaching methods, which have been used by 22,000 teachers and nearly three million students. 'If we can help influence the way the systems and the structures of modern education are going to work moving forward, then we will have been successful to benefit those kids,' said Corbin. 'I know we're changing lives. [I am] so incredibly proud of all the work that everybody over the last 25 years has done to make this endeavor possible and for it to thrive.'

PAST donates Green Man to library for installation in Reading Garden
BINGHAMTON, N.Y. (WIVT/WBGH) – There was yet another unveiling in downtown Binghamton today, this one of a replica of an architectural artifact that was saved from the trash heap. The Preservation Association of the Southern Tier donated a copy of a Green Man to the Broome County Public Library for future installation in the Reading Garden. PAST Executive Director Roger Luther says the Green Man, which features a face surrounded by vegetation, has been a symbol of renewal, rebirth and the coming of Spring for thousands of years. This one was made from a mold based on a Green Man that was removed from the Ross Building in downtown Binghamton prior to it being demolished. Luther says the 1889 building had several of them and he's grateful that one of them was saved. 'It was a shame to see these things just fall down to the sidewalk and crumble. So, it was so rewarding to finally see the guy got dressed up in a hazmat suit, got in the bucket lift, went up there, pried it off and went down and then demolition resumes. It was a really proud moment to see that get saved,' said Luther. Luther says a rubber mold was made of the original terra cotta Green Man and PAST began making 50-pound replicas with just the face. But when they got to their 100th copy, they decided to make a full 100-pound version including the top and bottom borders which was donated today. The Green Man will go on display later this year as part of a renovation of the Reading Garden with new entrances and landscaping.
